Airport development in India on steroids! How to manage side effects, if any? India has embarked on a mushroom growth of airports in small towns. See the details in the pic. Infra development is a much-needed boost for growth. But how do we know: - What we are building is what we need.  - What we build is working hard for us. - more such questions. Planning agencies, departments, ministries, and public representatives gunning for more airports need a framework to plan their way to sustainable growth. A simple yet effective tool from design thinking may be the answer. Desirability. Viability. Feasibility. (DVF) Originated by IDEO almost two decades ago, the DVF framework is frequently used in the start-up world to assess the potential of a new idea or solution. It's fit for assessing airport development projects in small towns as well. If an airport project passes a critical DVF evaluation, the planners/public representatives can be confident that the project is: - a solution desired by real consumers, and not just them. - a viable solution that can sustain itself profitably. - a technically feasible solution to handle the size and nature of the demand that exists. Why is it needed? Airports are expensive assets. Expensive to build. Expensive to use. More expensive to build and not use. An airport in most small towns is usually demand-constrained. Yet it needs to be self-sustaining. Unlike a rail and highway project passing through the same town, an airport project's cost and revenue potential cannot be shared by other cities. Neither airport has many alternate uses(rs) if regular flights are not attracted. For a developing country, it is imperative to manage the allocation of public funds in a manner that finds a balance between development needs, connectivity, and viability, as against the demand for popular projects. As they say, "Airports make their mistakes in cement." Have a view on this? Do express. If you found this useful, please like and repost.

The Silent Treatment - Innocent Behaviour or Covert Abuse? Have you ever felt ignored or given the cold shoulder by your partner? Has days or even weeks gone by without them speaking a word to you? Well, according to relationship counsellors and therapists, this 'silent treatment' could actually be a sneaky and sinister form of abuse. Withholding affection and conversation could be very damaging and it can take a major toll emotionally and mentally. Be aware, be mindful and reach out for help, if you are facing any form of emotional abuse… Invisible Scars Foundation Share with family and friends - https://lnkd.in/gD8t_s9X #silenttreatment #domesticabuseawareness #emotionalabuseawareness
